Peloton is one of the most successful businesses to come out of Kickstarter. In 2013, it published its bike project on the crowdfunding platform with a price of $1,500 and managed to raise $307,332, just slightly over its $250,000 goal.
While most businesses that debut on Kickstarter struggle once the hype dies down, Peloton went from strength to strength.
Peloton founder, John Foley, had more business acumen than the typical crowdfunded creator. Prior to the launch of Peloton, Foley was the chief of commerce at Barnes & Noble, and was the founder of two successful .com companies. This experience helped Peloton steer itself to a unicorn valuation in 2017 and IPO in 2019, two very rare milestones for Kickstarter’s alumni.
Peloton added a treadmill to its line-up and several accessories, such as dumbbells and resistance bands. But online services is where Peloton separates itself from other exercise equipment businesses. A large HD screen is fitted on both the bike and the treadmill, which stream Peloton classes. Over 50 instructors run live classes each week, at different intensities, alongside a huge library of pre-recorded content.
Peloton users pay $39.99 a month to access this library, or $12.99 only through the app.
Instead of simply selling the hardware, Peloton aims to be the entire stack for fitness. This is what propelled it to a $15 billion market cap, although that has declined significantly post-pandemic with a decline in interest from new customers.
